Madhav Kaushik Appointed Captain Of Noida Kings For UP T20 League 2026

Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Noida Kings have appointed experienced Uttar Pradesh batter Madhav Kaushik as their captain for the fourth edition of the UP T20 League, as the franchise looks to mount a strong challenge for the title in the upcoming season. Madhav, who joined Noida Kings from the 2024 Meerut Mavericks, brings with him considerable experience in the UP T20 League as well as Uttar Pradeshs domestic cricket structure. His appointment also gives the Kings a leader who has already handled captaincy responsibilities in the competition, having led Meerut Mavericks to the title in 2024 and also to the finals in the 2025 edition. Madhav has been one of the consistent performers since the UP T20 League's inaugural season in 2023. In the first two editions, he accumulated 716 runs, scoring 350 runs in 2023 and improving that tally to 366 runs in 2024. His 2024 campaign saw him finish among the leading run-scorers in the tournament, with 366 runs in 12 matches at an average of 61 and a strike rate of 146.99, including three half-centuries. In the 2025 season, Madhav scored 286 runs in 13 matches at an average of 31.78 and a strike rate of 139.51, with one half-century. His highest score was an explosive 95 off just 31 balls, an innings that included 10 fours and seven sixes and came at a strike rate of 306.45. Across the first three editions of the competition, Kaushik has therefore amassed 1,002 runs, making him one of the league's most experienced and productive batters. Beyond the T20 format, Madhav has established himself as a dependable top-order batter for Uttar Pradesh in first-class cricket. He has played 28 first-class matches, scoring 1,441 runs in 41 innings at an average of 37.92, with four centuries and five fifties. His highest first-class score is 185 not out against Nagaland in the 2025-26 season. In the 2025-26 Ranji Trophy season, he scored 351 runs in eight innings at an average of 50.14, including his career-best 185, ending the season as the top run-getter for Uttar Pradesh. Beyond the T20 format, Madhav has established himself as a dependable top-order batter for Uttar Pradesh in first-class cricket. He has played 28 first-class matches, scoring 1,441 runs in 41 innings at an average of 37.92, with four centuries and five fifties.

UPT20 League: No Pressure Of Captaincy; We Are Built For Challenges, Says Meerut's Rinku Singh

Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Meerut Mavericks captain Rinku Singh expressed sheer confidence in his squad's consistency and said they are expecting to perform well in the upcoming Season 4 of the UPT20 League. Our team has consistently performed brilliantly; we have played the finals for the last three seasons and won the title as well. There is no pressure of captaincy; we are built for challenges! My strategy is very straightforward: I tell every player in the team to give their 100% on the field without any pressure whenever they get a chance, Rinku Singh explained in the Captains' Meet, the official countdown to Uttar Pradeshs most prestigious cricketing event held in Lucknow on Thursday. League Chairman Dr. Sanjay Kapoor unveiled the blueprint and special initiatives for the upcoming season in the presence of the captains and representatives from all six franchise teams. With a massive prize pool of 3 crore at stake, the 34-match tournament will be broadcast live across 150 countries globally. The star-studded event featured the leadership of all six franchises on stage, including Bhuvneshwar Kumar (Lucknow Falcons), Rinku Singh (Meerut Mavericks), Sameer Rizvi (Kanpur Superstars), Madhav Kaushik (Noida Kings), Aryan Juyal (Gorakhpur Lions), and Bhupendra Yadav (representing Kashi Rudras). Setting a deeply collaborative tone, Chairman Dr. Sanjay Kapoor addressed the media with a heartfelt message. This league does not belong to one individual, but to all of us. The media is a part of our family. Until you are completely satisfied, neither the soundbites will stop nor the photographs. If there are any shortcomings, please forgive us; together we will make this festival a success, he stated. The tournament will kick off on August 14 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium with a glittering opening ceremony featuring live concerts by musical maestro Shankar Mahadevan and celebrated singer Jasmine Sandlas, complemented by synchronised drone and light shows. In a major, fan-first initiative aimed at providing relief to stadium-goers, Dr. Kapoor also announced that all food and beverages, including drinking water, will be sold strictly at Maximum Retail Price (MRP) inside the venues. Highlighting the transformative impact of the league and Rajeev Shukla's vision for unearthing grassroots talent, Dr. Kapoor shared a remarkable success story from the UPCA Speed Hunt. We conducted the Speed Hunt without charging any trial fees. Shubham Gautam, who bowled at speeds of 144-145 kmph, entered the auction with a base price of 2.5 lakh and was eventually sold for 21.5 lakh. This is the biggest success of this league, he proudly noted. The franchise captains also shared their insights and strategies ahead of the season. Lucknow Falcons captain Bhuvneshwar Kumar reflected on his team's past campaigns, stating, In the last two seasons, our team's performance was not up to expectations, and we missed out on the trophy. This time, we identified our weaknesses in the auction and have built a balanced team. While IPL experience will be useful, T20 cricket is a game of 11 players. We will step onto the field creating a positive atmosphere to clinch the title this time. We conducted the Speed Hunt without charging any trial fees.
